AN ESSENTIAL ALBUM, AND A KEY FOR FURTHER EXPLORATIONS OF MONK’S MUSIC. HERE THE SONGS HE WOULD PLAY THROUGHOUT HIS CAREER ARE ALL IN SHORTENED, TIGHT FORM, WHICH HIGHLIGHTS THEIR ORIGINALITY AS COMPOSITIONS. THEY’RE STRANGE AND GREAT. MONK’S PLAYING, AS ALWAYS, IS BRILLIANTLY BENT -- UNUSUAL AND COMPLETELY UNLIKE ANYTHING THAT CAME BEFORE. NOBODY ELSE EVER SOUNDED LIKE THIS. A SHOUT OUT SHOULD ALSO GO TO MILT JACKSON, WHO TOTALLY GETS IT AND MAKES THE TUNES HE PLAYS ON THE BEST OF THE ALBUM.
